Re: A new Fw 190 D-9
Unikum,

Nice pics you found there; I do not think though they depict Rudel and his machine, known to be a Fw 190 D-9 and also photographed in April 1945. The machine in this Ebay auction is an A-8, and the pilot does not match Rudel.

But then who could it be? Which unit?

Thanks for sharing your find
Marc

PS: Simon Schatz just proved me wrong over on LEMB: the pilot is indeed Rudel, and the plane might be his.
